Davenport, Iowa

I had assumed that Davenport was named as such because it is on the Mississippi River, and a port. Nope, just named after a guy named Davenport.

At 1052AM, CT, Davenport was reporting a temperature of 83 degrees with clear skies. It was fairly breezy across the area, especially just above the surface. This is because of the leading edge of lee troughing extending all the way into the Dakotas, and brisk southerlies across the Hawkeye State.
The jet is zonal and well into Canada, indicating a dry, sunny and warm couple of days ahead. The high pressure centered over the Great Lakes is going to help squash the tropical features in the western Atlantic away from the coast and towards the central Atlantic.

That was a pretty easy forecast. With temperatures potentially reaching the 90s, I would say this qualifies as pretty toasty for late September. Satellite shows a bit of scud, stirred up the brisk winds, but there isn’t much moisture to make for a lot of clouds.
